No Head On Which A Hat To Place

I always run but never walk,
I sometimes sing but cannot talk,
No head on which a hat to place,
You always look me in the face.

What am I?

A clock. It runs all the time, it “sings” for hourly chimes, cuckoos or alarms, it doesn’t have a head (but does have hands) and you look a clock in the face to tell the time.

Every Dawn Begins With Me

Every dawn begins with me
At dusk I’ll be the first you see
And daybreak couldn’t come without
What midday centers all about
Daises grow from me, I’m told
And when I come, I end all cold
But in the sun I won’t be found
Yet still, each day I’ll be around

The letter “d”.
